Al Gore's house uses more energy than the average, no doubt about it. He's an important man, operating both business and political concerns from his home. There's staff, quite a few if I remember correctly, along with their attendant energy needs. Al Gore is a busy, and quite wealthy, fellow.
It's been my experience that people who will go out of their way to denigrate Gore will fail to tell you he purchases his household energy from wind, solar, and other renewable sources through the Green Power Switch program. There's ample information available on the program should one choose to have a look. And he does this at great additional expense to himself.
Al Gore doesn't have to stop using less oil, except possibly on transportation.

May be (I don't happen to agree), but please don't base your judgment on rhetoric with only a tangential relationship with the truth.
